Assembly Bill 327 proposes to amend the current weight limit for utility terrain vehicles (UTVs) in Wisconsin. Specifically, the bill raises the maximum allowable weight for a UTV from 3,000 pounds to 3,500 pounds. This change is intended to accommodate a broader range of motor-driven devices that can be classified as UTVs, which are designed primarily for off-highway use and must meet certain size and equipment specifications.

The bill includes amendments to two sections of the statutes: 23.33 (1) (ng) 1. a. and 23.33 (1) (ng) 2. a. In both sections, the previous weight limit of 3,000 pounds is deleted and replaced with the new limit of 3,500 pounds. This adjustment reflects an effort to modernize the classification of UTVs and potentially enhance their usage in various applications within the state.
